you know i need a little break
to get away for a holiday
so i can see the sun
cos in the sun they say it's fun
if you can get some
well i could take a train or a boat or an aeroplane
or i could steal a car
cos in a car you can go far
just depends on what kind of car you are

i met a funny looking girl
on a crowded beach in spain
her name was avaline
she said she came to spain to have a good time
but she was with her mum
who had a face like a nun in pain
she said her name was dot
she didn't half talk a lot
i couldn't tell if she was mad or not

don't you know - i should have stayed in england
on my polluted beach - with all my special friends
don't you know - i should have stayed in england
with my big house and my big car
and all my friend are there at the bar

you know i need a little break
